Description

Camera chain for motor vehicles
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of camera chain for motor vehicles, it has and is arranged in vehicle window in inner space Video camera after glass and the beam steering element being arranged between glass for vehicle window and video camera, it has or constitutes prism, its In, video camera has the electro-photographic sensor of band pel array.
Background technology
This camera chain is disclosed in German laid-open document DE 10 2,008 020 954 A1.
The camera chain with the video camera found a view through glass for vehicle window is mounted for such as lane identification and/or friendship Messenger identification.In modern personal automobile, it is referred to as the front window glass of windshield in air force and aesthetically Reason place with the mildest angle (about 20 ° to 25 °).Therefore, incident in the horizontal direction light Restraint when entering in this glass for vehicle window by deviation consumingly.
Generally light beam when injection from glass for vehicle window by deviation the most consumingly.However, it is known that the light of prism-like Conductor without refraction ground or only can couple with the inner side of low refraction with glass for vehicle window, thus adjusts light path in an advantageous manner Whole.But this optical conductor is likely to cause geometry deformation and interference aberration.
The compression of camera review not only occurs in geometry deformation or stretches the bending that camera views also occurs.This is It is to be less a problem comparatively speaking, because it can eliminate with calculation subsequently.On the contrary, compensation is made by prism system The aberration become can be much more expensive.This is provided with multiple prism mostly, and these prisms are by multiple different and part costliness Material make, or arrange relative to each other in the way of geometrically complicated.
Summary of the invention
Propose following task, i.e. provide a kind of general shooting for motor vehicles extremely simple and with low cost Machine system, this camera chain does not has or only has low aberration.
According to the present invention, this task solves in the following manner, i.e. the optical property of video camera and prism is with such as lower section Formula is mutually coordinated, i.e. make due to prism caused by the dispersion in the wave-length coverage of camera acquisition at image sensor On maximum wave beam widen the Pixel Dimensions being positioned at pel array.
Can with abnormal cost cheap manufacture the camera chain according to the present invention, because it is only with unique prism just foot To deal with.
The present invention considers based on following, i.e. when the point of the object gathered by video camera is at the image sensor of video camera Different pixels on imaging time, just will recognise that the fuzzy or aberration caused by the dispersion of prism.Therefore, as long as by optical element The image error caused is maintained at below Pixel Dimensions, and this image error is maintained for not detectable.
The optics significant surface of optical prism is typically the most smooth, i.e. will not be formed by remaining unevenness can The error identified.Additionally, the material of optical prism homogenizing the most as follows, i.e. will not be consequently formed recognizable equally Error.
When simple prism (for the Dispersion Compensation Systems of multiple prisms) is installed in video camera specifically Camera lens object lens in other words before time, mainly estimated the deterioration of image quality by the dispersion properties of prism material.Different Wavelength is differently deflected, so that the angle of incidence on image sensor is also different through prism.In order to make own The light beam imaging in unique pixel the most well enough of the wavelength relevant with producing picture point, prism angle must be the least , i.e. make the difference of the angle of incidence on image sensor be maintained at below the specified limit of resolution.
Therefore, the optical property of video camera and prism is the most mutually coordinated.Here, relate to prism material in terms of prism Refractive index and variations in refractive index (dispersion relation) in the wave-length coverage by the light of camera acquisition, the angle of incidence of light, with And the value of refraction by prism corner angle.In terms of video camera, the size of the pixel on image sensor and spacing are especially relevant 's.
These values are the most mutually coordinated, i.e. the wave beam of the maximum possible caused by the dispersion of prism is widened Can not be more than the pixel of image sensor.Prism angle selects the most as follows, i.e. make desired rib Mirror effect, the most such as light beam steering or Geometric compression are the biggest, and by the error on colour cause Point on image sensor is widened or sufficiently small.
In preferred embodiments, beam steering element also comprises for adhering in addition to the optics significant surface of prism Video camera and/or the element that video camera is oriented.
In preferred embodiments, beam steering element also comprises for suppressing in addition to the optics significant surface of prism The element of scattered light.
In preferred embodiments, prism has the refracting angle being 4 ° to the maximum.
Accompanying drawing explanation
Hereinafter in conjunction with accompanying drawing, the present invention should be shown, and it is carried out more detailed elaboration.Wherein,
Fig. 1 schematically shows camera chain,
Fig. 2 illustrates the schematic diagram of image sensor resolution performance,
Fig. 3 illustrates the schematic diagram of the beam-broadening caused due to the dispersion of prism material.
Detailed description of the invention
Fig. 1 shows the basic layout of the assembly according to camera chain of the present invention.First it should be mentioned that structural principle and Operation principle;Therefore, shown assembly true angle the most each other of size the most each other for the change in actual configuration Illustrate truly.
This system is made up of prism 3 and video camera 7, and wherein, video camera 7 is arranged in such a way, i.e. make it pass through car Glass pane 2 is found a view, specifically, from the received outside light of glass for vehicle window 2.Here, light path 1 extends through rib from glass for vehicle window 2 Mirror 3 optical medium 4 that is placed through between prism 3 and video camera 7 are until video camera 7.For simplicity it is assumed that by air It is provided as optical medium 4.
Video camera 7 is made up of at least one object lens 6 and an optical recording image sensor 5.Object lens 6 have at least at this One focusing effect lens.Obviously, other optics, electronics or the assembly of machinery, especially housing can be to take the photograph too The ingredient of camera 7.
In order to light path is described, figure 1 illustrates the trend of three parallel entrance beam 1, these light beams are the most parallel Ground falls on the outside of the glass for vehicle window 2 tilted relative to incident direction.Light beam 1 is vertical to glass when entering glass for vehicle window 2 Line removes ground deviation.
The inner side of glass for vehicle window 2 is disposed with prism 3.Preferably, prism 3 has or phase identical with glass for vehicle window 2 Near refractive index, and optically couple with glass for vehicle window 2, so that the transition region between glass for vehicle window 2 and prism 3 Territory is practically without occurring the angular divergence of light beam 1.The light beam 1 of distribution the most parallel to each other after running through prism 3 is by taking the photograph Camera object lens 6 focus on the image sensor 5 of video camera 7.
The prism 3 that figure 1 illustrates has relatively small refracting edge angle beta, and does not the most have to come for prism Say typical wedge shape, and be constructed to the plate of the interarea parallel with on-plane surface.This prism 3 can also be designed to be put down by plane The integral type associating of the plate of row and the wedge of minimum acute angle.The prism 3 that refracting edge angle beta is shown here at is about 2 °.
Fig. 2 illustrates the resolution performance of the image sensor 5 of video camera.Replace object lens 6 that single lens 6' is shown.Pass through Dotted line illustrates the principal plane of lens 6' and the optical axis of video camera.It can be seen that cross section in the spacing of the focal distance f of lens 6' In image sensor 5.It is assumed that image sensor 5 by not as shown in independent part, there is the pixel battle array of Pixel Dimensions p Row are constituted.
Using relative to the angle α of optical axis as central beam be incident on lens 6' light beam there is not deviation, specifically come Say with etc. the big angle α ' relative to optical axis be incident on the surface of image sensor 5, and be imaged on video sensor there Starting several kth pixel from center sensor of device 5.Following relation:
Tan α '=x/f=kp/f
Sample calculation: in the case of focal distance f=10mm and Pixel Dimensions p=10 μm, draw 1 °=k × 0.010/ of tan 10, it is often to spend n=17.455 pixel particularly for the resolution of video camera for little angle α '.
The principle of the present invention is illustrated below in conjunction with Fig. 3.First Fig. 3 illustrates qualitatively with base simplification, pure It is disposed with the generation of aberration in the case of prism.
As is it well known, the light incided in (the most unshowned) prism decomposes in view of the dispersion properties of prism material For the spectral color being included in light.If such as white light is fallen on prism with given angle of incidence, then different colors or ripple Length penetrates from prism with the different deviations angle.For visible ray, pass through the short of the strongest deviation in this angle range covered Deviation angle α of the light of rippleBlueDeviation angle α of the light of the long wave of the most weak deviationRedEstimate.But for camera chain, The spectrum of important not incident illumination, but the spectrum of the light that only can be detected by camera chain is the most important.In view of such as Glass for vehicle window 2 or the transmission property of object lens 6 and the spectrum sensitivity of camera chip 5, the spectrum of the light detected and incident illumination Spectrum compare generally reduction.Meaningfully, therefore αBlueAnd αRedMean that there is the shortest and the longest wavelength that can detect that The deviation angle of light.
In addition to the dispersion profile of the prism material applied, the numerical value of this deviation angle drawn also relies at this The geometry of prism and light enter the angle of incidence in prism 3, and can be for each system with calculation or with experiment side Formula determines.
Therefore, the wave beam that dispersion is widened carrys out imaging with following width in view of angle stragging on image sensor,
Δ x=(tan αBlue-tanαRed)×f。
In order to make the dispersion of prism 3 not cause perceptible interference to arrange: the group of the camera chain that figure 1 illustrates Part is the most mutually coordinated, i.e. make dispersion widen the Pixel Dimensions p remaining less than image sensor 5:
(tanαBlue-tanαRed)×f<p
This can be by prism material, prism geometry, the spectral quality of camera chain and image sensor 5 Resolution performance be suitable for selection realize.
The resolution determined by Pixel Dimensions p represents the significant limit for whole camera optical equipment.Lens 6'(object lens 6 in other words) need not that there is the resolution less than Pixel Dimensions p.As long as whole image error keeps below pixel chi Very little p, then the error of other optical elements is also inessential.
Camera chain described herein thus avoid the error on colour, and the multi-piece type rib that need not have is expensive The indemnifying measure of mirror system.
